Friends?

Indeed, time proves everything.

I guess, this time, it truly being proven where I stand inside you. Simple birthday wish show much how you matter to a person.

I couldn't help wondering. Is that what you mean, when you had say 'Friends for life' or even when you use the term 'best friend'


Maybe everything had ended with a silent goodbye back to the meeting that we last had. A goodbye from you, that no one else ever acknowledge.




If that is the case. All the best to your future endeavor.


Trust me, August and September will be the time again to prove that I'm right. Because, it had happened before.



Sad to acknowledge that this is the ending of our journey. Whether each of us had done our part, I believe we know it in our heart. Whether you read this or not, I have no idea.

Birthday 2010 ^^

Had a wonderful 20th birthday...

Thanks to those around me... for the surprise, the celebration, the wishes ^^

Celebrations had started two days before my birthday, on 20th June 2010. A trip to Singapore Science Center (SSC) & Pixar Exhibition was more than what I had expected!

Even though a little monkey (you know who you are!) had let the cat peek out of the bag just to annoy me and get the name of the person who sms-ed her. I wasn't prepare for the surprise that was waiting for me at the corner of SSC McDonald! Being prank right for the start of the day (or should I say months before?) when MH told me that she would be late and told me to wait for them at Jurong East MRT station as they did not know the route to SSC *wonder why did I even believe them when they just went to SSC LAST OCTOBER!!!!*

End up they took cab down to SSC, thus I waited at MRT station for 1/2hr for 'NOTHING' =.= Walk over to SSC to find MH outside Mac waiting for me. She had waved to me and thought I saw her, but I didn't!! Not until she called me. She told me SH went to the gents, when in actual fact, he went to hunt for candle or was it lighter? Then called and make sure they ready before we went in. I thought we waited outside because Mac too many people, but it was rather empty inside =.= Only the front part of Mac look packed

Went in and the first thing person I saw was CASA!!! And on the table was HOTCAKES DECORATED WITH M&Ms AND A CANDLE ON IT!!!! Though someone had kind of leak a little that there's something planned for me, I never expect it to be right in the morning!


So birthday song can blowing of candle... Then off to get the proper breakfast! While eating breakfast, it was story telling from MH, SH and Casa ^^

Retrieve our tickets while waiting for Gabriel... Only then I realise, they planned it months ago! Casa had long confirmed his attendance with MH!!! And they made Casa bluff me that he can't confirm until nearer date =.=

Enjoyed both the Pixar Exhibition as well as visit to SSC. New exhibitions added! Me and MH were like teachers bringing students out for excursion :P The guys are more engross in the exhibition than me and MH... Especially at Mind's Eye. Rant mode on: they don't believe when I explain the exhibition to them *pouts*

While the guys were engross with the exhibition, me and MH were getting bored and tired. We were waiting for them to move on to the Sound exhibition. It's new, thus wanting to try out. Then MH received a call to say that her "mom" rushing her to go down to meet them.

Leave SSC and walk into another surprise! In order for me not to spot the surprise, MH chiong to Mac, while SH distract me by nearing getting himself into wet spot. Haha... He say he wanna try to chiong into the water feature! And MH dare him to do so~ To the point he said out to himself if he really need to take off his shoe to do it. Later on he told us, he was quite worry that if I still didn't see the surprise, he really need to take out his handphone and pass it to me to hold.

But then, lucky for him, I spotted my mom! Because her top is very very striking purple! And I saw her even though she stood pretty far in. And I didn't even see MH and Jenson when they are closer to me than my mom was!

And ta-da~ Surprise 2!!! I was so touched til I cried!! Because I totally totally didn't expect it to happen! Since there was already a celebration in the morning. *Originally I thought the celebration would be after the outing thus I wasn't prepare to have one in the morning. But after having the morning one, I didn't expect the second to take place!*

Thanks MH for planning. Thanks Sotong for being the middle(wo)man. Thanks Jenson for getting the cake and wait for such a long time! And most of all... Thanks all for being there to celebrate for me!!!


Off to grandparents' house for the weekly gathering. And celebration after that. Cookie cream ice cream cake from Swensen!!

On 21st, meet up with MH, SH, Pui, Jenson and Nich for ice cream buffet at Ion Swensen. Another round of pranking from them =.=" Firstly, Puii sms me telling me that she can't make it for the outing because last minute have to go work. Didn't really believe when I realise she didn't inform Jenson! So I told MH and Jenson that if she turn out, she pay full price instead of 1/2 price! Then MH sms two sms to say that she will OT and unable to make it. But somehow, I also don't believe it. (Tio pranked too much the day before liao~)

Puii came and said she want to go to the ladies, and I wanted to go since I stepped into Swensen liao. So obviously I tagged along la. End up, they (Puii and SH) were just giving reason to get out and meet MH. Because MH IS AT THE ENTRANCE WITH BALLOON AND LILY to surprise me. She was 'borrowing' two male waiters from the manager to pass me the balloon and lily one at a time because she xian sheng. But because I tag along, the surprise was spoiled! @.@

Anyway, went back in to enjoy our ice cream buffet. End up Nich accompany me out to go to the toilet =.= Because I scare I lose my way while finding the toilet in Ion. MH tried to salvage the surprise by asking the staff for their in-house birthday special: BD FIREHOUSE! But... It was once again foiled because when the bill came, I took it to see how much I need to pay, and MH just let me took it, when she had tried to prevent me from taking. She sian diao when I nudged her and said that I already saw it. She didn't realise because she was backfacing me all along and keep urging me to take that S$10 when SH was the one buying the bill =.="Jenson left first while the rest of us when walk walk around Somerset. Went to take Neoprints at Cineleisure as well as tried to catch some toys at level 7.

Deardear wanted to meet me and countdown with me at my house. But I told him don't have to meet since he had to work morning shift the next day. So he wished me Happy Birthday on the phone instead.

22nd: Sms-ed in to radio100.3 to say it's my birthday! And the moment I step into the overheadbridge into NYP, they started singing birthday, DEDICATED TO ME! ^^ And they even mention that my name is beautiful ^^ As in the chinese character that is use to form my name~

My dearest MFGG leaders came down to NYP just to celebrate my birthday ^^ Thanks Fel for organising! A simple lunch... As I was having a full day training that day.
Back to training, but pretty slacking. Jessie ask for a break and I went back to my own FYP lab (which is just next door). Just as I was getting myself a drink, Jessie opened the door and start to sing 'Happy Birthday' song, with SP and Ms Gan behind her. Mei Hui was there as well! Cut the reminding cake that the girls bought and shared with Ms Gan, Ms Sze, Ms Tay and Jessie.


After school, when home for dinner with family and deardear. Went AMKhub to get my present as well as a cake. Deardear sponsor! Woots~ Deardear accompany me til 1230, when I was already fast asleep!

23rd: Met LeeMei for a mini celebration. Ailian was there as well when I met LeeMei. Ailian treated me to a drink before she left to meet her ex-colleagues while Lee Mei and I went over to 313 to have our dinner. Yummilicious!Peri Peri Squid

Thanks everyone for the wonderful birthday I had this year ^^ The celebration, the gift, the surprises and the warm wishes!

Remininse on the good old time of OTians

Been reading OT thread when MH mention it in FB... Still readin, many more pages to go...

The good old times... The confides, the laughter, the matchmaking, the joy... The friendships that forged and the closeness of a family. What have remain, is just the memories of it.

How many of us were as close as we used to be?
How many of us still remember each other?

It's just three years, or rather, two and a half years to be exact. But things had changed. Too many things.


That was the place where I found friendships
That was the place I used to pour out my problems
That was the place where we goof around.
That was the place we gotten close.

That was the place, where we start to nickname each other, as a certain 'family member'


And because of the friendships from this thread, Da even say that I prove that online friendships can last.

Thanks OTians... for the memories we had together...

Movie: Shrek 4

Caught Shrek with Da at The Cathay yesterday...

Somehow, feel that the movie is kinda a little like nothing much? As in, content not really impactful kinda feeling... Storyline moving too fast?

Glad that we didn't caught it in 3D... Feel that it won't be much different in 3D anyway...

Like what Fiona say to Shrek when they went out of the room. Too often, we ourselves don't see what we have. Only to realise when it's lost. What's the point then?

Shrek is lucky to be able to salvage the situation ultimately. But how many of us would even have that chance to salvage at all? He's the only one who was affected, because no-one is truly at that situation other than himself.

But in real life, it's not as simple. No matter how hard someone try to salvage, the impact is there, damage done. Nothing can be revert back to the past. The scars are there to stay.

Coffee or Cup?

A group of graduates, highly established in their careers, got together to visit their old university professor. Conversation soon turned into complaints about stress in work and life. Offering his guests coffee, the professor went to the kitchen and returned with a large pot of coffee and an assortment of cups -porcelain, plastic, glass, crystal, some plain looking, some expensive, some exquisite - telling them to help themselves to the coffee.

When all the students had a cup of coffee, the professor said, "If you noticed, all the nice looking expensive cups were taken up, leaving behind the simple and cheap ones. While it is normal for you to want only the best for yourselves, that is the source of your problems and stress. Be assured that the cup itself adds no quality to the coffee. In most cases, it is just more expensive and in some cases even hides what we drink. What all you really wanted was coffee, not the cup, but you consciously went for the best cups...Then you began eyeing each other's cups."

"Now consider this", said the professor, "Life is the coffee; the jobs, money and position in society are the cups. They are just tools to hold and contain Life, and the type of cup we have does not define, nor change, the quality of Life we live. Sometimes, by concentrating on the cups, we fail to enjoy the coffee. Enjoy your coffee!"

The happiest people don't have the best of everything. They just make the best of everything.

Four things to take note of in life...

1. Live simply

2. Love generously

3. Care deeply

4. Speak kindly,

Shine a light and enjoy your coffee today! Enjoy your Life!
